New Years Day Frost.

Az His Victims Were Given a Taste OF
New Years Day Frost.
Judge Stilsing got up on the wrong side
yesterday morning, and when he appeared
in the First District Police Court about
half-pasts eight there was grim, sour look
on his face that BODIED no good to those
who had been unfortunate enough to get
caught in their sins. Dan Kilburn was abb
sent. and this seemed to make His Honor
still more sour,
The first man brought in was William
Dawson, of Houlton. England. William
had been arrested on Montgomery street in
an extremely drunken condition. When
he was searched, $32 IN money and ticket
to England was found in one,of his pock-
cts. The Judge gave him until o'clock
to leave the country. William left, after
promising to take the first steamer for
England.
The next man up was William Haight-
William, last night, stopped Officer Klaus
and told him, that unless he locked him up
he would die. The officer was kind-hearted
and locked him up. He asked the Judge
to send him to Snake Hill, but the Judge
didn't think the county had any money to
waste boarding him, so he was fred out of
the courtroom.
Henry Tripper was the next man up. He
is an old Snake Hitler, and was found
drunk last night. He promised the Judge
that he would go home and not leave
there for week # allowed to CO. The
Judge told him to go, and said that if he
appeared before him again in year he
would send him to the Hill for year
William ]. Albertso s name was next
called, and at the request of Officer Perry
| he was discharged.
| Henry Kerr had a little jag on, and
stumbled into hall, on Grand str eet, last
right. AS he is fresh from State Prison
! the Judge thought that the stumble might
have been an intentional one and decided
to hold him for examination.
1 Eliza Bremen was arrested while at
tempting to climb a telephone pole. She
was half way up when the policeman saw
her, and it was with difficulty that he got
her to come down and be arrested Eliza
was an old offender, and a genuine
nuisance. but the Judge sent her home to
take care of her mythical family,
Sergeant O'Connor was the complainant
against Epinetas Williams. He said that
he had seen Eph attempt to break open
the door of saloon on Grand street. near
Barrow, about $3.50 a. m. Eph is an old
State Prison bird, and the Judge held him
in default of bail. Eph claimed that he
was SO drunk that he did not know what
he was doing.
Alexander Gallagher, canal boatman,
was arrested, and as ne promised to get
out of the State in fifteen minutes, the
Judge told him to go.
James Kenney. who has been out of the
penitentiary only three whole weeks, was
arrested by Officer Mcdonald as disor-
DERBY person. Kenny was the last m an to
be arraagued and the Court adjourned.

The Correct Version OF Her Last stormy
Passage.
The account in last Sunday mornings
News Of the steamer s'P. Caland," of he
Netheriand American Line, headed g Ten
Days Overdue, was incorrect in many rs-
spects. 1t was furnished by reporter who,
though specially instructed to do so, failed
to thoroughly investigate the matter. He
reported that he had done so. however.
and the account was published as he wrote
it. The editor OF the NEWS had no reason
to suspect that the facts were in any way
misstated until the receipt of letter from
Charles D. j. Noelke, the company's Jersey
City agent, followed by long letter on the
subject from the company's General Agent
IN New York, stating that the article was
pure fabrication. The steamer had not
only arrived safe and sound, but, when the
article of last Sunday was written, she was
all ready to sail, as she did, the first thing
last Monday. 1t is fact that the steamer
did arrive,a few days overdue. She was
due on Saturday, December 18th, but did
not arrive until the following Wednesday
Then, because the company's dock at the
foot of York street was undergoing repair,
she was towed to Hoboken. where her
cargo was discharged and the steamer re-
loaded. Far from the steamer having only
few days supply aboard, no steamer in
the company's service ever embarks with
ont an ample three months supply being
stored IN her hold

This splendid fraternal insurance organi-
cation has broken ground in this city, a
camp (Harsimus, No. l6) having been in
stituted few days since at 407 Grove
street. D. D. Allerton was selected as
Commander, J. R. Baker as Vice-Com-
mander, J. g. Reid of 4Oz Grove street as
Secretary and Enrolling Officer. and J. S.
Young as Officer of the Day. w. s. Pang-
born is the Mustering-in Officer. This or
ganization is modelled somewhat after the
United States pension system, and instead
of paying three thousand dollars at death,
it pays the widow. mother, or other de-
pendent SO or so dollars per month during
life; pays the insured member himself
same amour; after GO years of age also
pays the member same amount for six
months in every year if disabled by sick
ness or other causes. Any white male OF
good health and character is eligible to
membership. 1t has but twelve assess
ments year, one on the first of each
month. This system prevents loss and
provides q regular steady monthly income
| for the widow and the fatherless.

The annual ball of Enterprise Conclave
No. 3S. Knights of Sherwood Forest, was
given New Years Eve at Cooper Hall I'M
der rather unfavorabls circumstances.
There was not very large attendance,
which was owing to the unusually ba@
weather. Company A of the Second Regi
ment of Hoboken, had promised to give an
exhibition drill, but shey did not make
their appearance, which was rather disap-
pointing to the guests. However, all those
who attended the ball went in for good
time, and they certainly had it. The
grand march was formed about 1890
O'Clock, led by Mr.. M. F. Cronin and Miss
D'Auby and in which about fifty couples
participated, the members of the conclave
appearing in their handsome uniforms.
After the march the dancing was started
and continued until the early hours of the
first day Of the new year. Among those
in attendance were E. r. Vessels and wife.

The advertisement in Friday 8 World "
announcing that the 'sArgus will hereaf-
ter be sold at penny, instead of, as here
tofore, at two cents, encourages US to fire
a little newspaper philosophy at the man
ayers of our afternoon contemporary.
That the change is made so long after the
new management took control of the pa
per, will be regarded by the public as the
''new mansgement's own involuntary adj
mission that it has found it impossible to
make paper the people will pay two
cents for. The "Argus" will probably
discover when it has thoroughly tested its
experimental reduction, that the mere fact
that paper is sold for cent will not add
to its list of patrons that it must be good
to be acceptable, aAdif it is good, it will
be an readily taken at two cents as at one
A bad paper won't go at even penny a
good one is easily worth two cents.

The SUNDAY Morning News began the
fifth year of its existence last Sunday
morning, and the paper we issued was a
fitting anniversary number. 1t was fuller
even than usual of local news. 1t antici-
pated nearly every line the Eveniag Jour
nal supplied to its readers on Monday.
A comparison of Mondays edition of the
Journal with the last issue of the SUNDAY
MORNING NEWS disclosed but four little
news items that had not been alraeady
published in these columns. Those re-
lated to matters that happened after the
time of tie issue of last SUNDAYS NEWS
The paper consisted of IA pages, 81 col
umns, and outside of the matters on the
miscellaneous page. treated nearly 400 local
and telegraphio news topics. TheS UNDAY

since achieved in the van of the news

"a SUPERB COUNTRY"
Col. Dawson's Opinion of Alaska
After a Visit.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-Col. N. III.
X. Dawson, commissioner of education,
arrived in Washington yesterday from
Alaska, where he went to investigate
the question of Indian education, and to
inspect the schools established and about
to be established in that atfar-offcountry by
the United States government. He re-
ports great progress in the work of civil
izing and educating the Indians At Sitka
there are two United States government
schools, one Presbyterian mission and
one Russian school. Col. Dawson saws
that Alaska is superb country and only
needs developing. There are already a
great many salmon canning industries
and three or four gold mines worked by
syndicates, which are realizing splendid
fortunes for the investors. There is quite
a mining boom just at present, particu-
larly at Sitka. The gold mine known as
the Treadwell, On Douglas island. is
one of the richest and most profitable in
the United States. The mill on Douglas
island cost $3.50, 900, and comprises 100
stamps. The prospects of gold mining
in the vicinity of Sitka are very prOmiS-

A Secret Conference.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. 19.-Presi-
dent Nimick and Manager Phillips, of
the Pittsburg club, Chris Won der Abe,
of st. Louis, and E. E. Menges, of the
Western league, had long secret con-
ference here this morning. What sub
jects were discussed is unknown, but a
rumor is in circulation to the effect that
the Pittsbuag club may be transferred
to Kansas City. 1t is well known fact
that Won der Abe has been looking for
an opportunity to get an interest in a
good club in Kansas City for several
years. as he considers it a good ball
town. All of the gentlemen who took
part in the conference refuse to disclose
the matters discussed. 1t is thought
that the union of the Western and
Northwestern league, which is to be
consumated before the beginning OF
next season, was one of the subjects
which was talked about.

LoUIsv1LLE's GREAT DAY.
Successful Opening of the Fall
Meeting OF the Jockey Club.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Sept. 19.-The fall
meeting of the Louisville Jockey club
opened to-day under the most favorable
circumstances. The weather, though
pleasant, was threatening, but not enough
SO to prevent a large attendance. The
full fields rendered the results excep-
tionally uncertain, and the betting was
lively. The racing was exciting, and
with the large number of horses at the
track the prospect is that it will SurpaSS
in interest the sport during the
spring meeting. The time, considering
the condition of the track, which was
slow, was good. Gen. James Robinson,
of Lexington. Capt. James Franklin, of
Gallatin, Tenn, and Col. NJ. Lewis
Clark supplied the judges stand. The
event of the day, the Blue Grass stakes,
three-fourths of a mile dash for two
year-olds, was won by son of Ten
Brock, Harper's Patton, who took it
handily from big field. The prettiest
race of the day was the last, in which
Fosteral and Sour Mash barely escaped
a dead heat, the former winning by a
nose. The starting was excellent. AL
together the meeting promises to be one
of the most successful ever held here.

olds, one-half mile dash-The starters,

Terra del Fuego.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10. = Consul
Baker, at Buenos Ayres, has made
long and interesting report to the state
department, giving in Substance the re-
suits of recent exploration of Terra del
Fuego. Contrary to common belief,
founded upon reports of early naviga-
tors who failed to penetrate the interior,
the archipelago contains valuable farm
ing lands, forests and mineral deposits.
1t is peopled by two distinct races of
savageS; one being well-formed. and re-
markably strong, subsisting chiefly by
the chase; the other coast people,
physically inferior, but not deficient in
intelligence. An English missionary,
with his family, has made his home
among them for the last twenty-five
years, and under his tutelage the ma
tives are acquiring some eff the habits
and customs of civilization. The Ar
gentine government is taking steps to
coloniZe and develop the island. gov
ernOr has been appointed, and a thor
ough scientific exploration is to be un-
dertaken.

CRooKsToN, Minn.. Sept. 19-The
festive burglar has again reaped good
harvest in this city. 1t will be remem-
bered shert time since the postoffice at
this place was robbed of money and
stamps to the amount of SIP. 1t is now
generally believed that these are the
same parties who entered at a late hour
last night the residences of Mayor HUI
burt on Houston ayenne and walked off
with his watch and $40 in cash, then pro-
ceeded across the street to the residence
Of II. NJ. Pierce and secured gold
watch valued at $50 and SIS
in cash.; next to the house
of W. w. Ayres on Ash street. where
Mr.. Moore, the principal of the high
school, and his wife board, also Miss
Recie, a school teacher. Mrs. Moore
was robbed of all her jewelry, watch
and diamonds. Miss Recie lost her
watch and some money. The burglars
also tried other houses but were driven
away. The way they effected their en-
trance was by the use of small pincherS
put into the keyhole from the outside,
catching the key and turning sufficiently
to unlock the door. Strange to say none
of the parties robbed heard any unusual
disturbance, although Mr.. Pearce claims
to have a severe head ache this after
noon, probably from the effects of
chlOrOfOrm. Up to this time there is
no clue to the thieves.

SWINDLED ENGLISHMEN.
They Raise the Largest Kind of e
Row in Protest.

LONDON, Sept. 1O.-Neither Gent nor
Hutchins, who were advertised to run
100 yards foot race at Lilley bridge to-
day for the championship of the world
and EGO, appeared OH the track at all.
Thousands of spectators had assembled
and paid to witness the announced con-
test. When the crowd were made aware
of the situation, they were disguised
and soon took revenge in riot. They
attacked the fences, railingS and build
ingS on the grounds and burned several
of the latter to the ground. The mob
partly demolished two grand stands, the
dancing pavilion and the large as
sembly hall, and set fire to the
debris they collected. forming six
large bonfres. They then set
fire to the wooden ratings along the
railway, and nearly set fire to the
BromptOn station. They next looted
the liquor saloons in the vicinity and
bombarded the windows and the police,
men and firemen with full and empty
bottles. The firemen played the hose
upon the rioters, but in vain After
holding pOSSiOn for three hours the mob
was dispersed, when the police, strongly
reinforced, arrested a number of the
rioters. A railroad inspector. after the
struggle with the mob, dropped dead
from the effects of the excitement. The
damage is enormous. Both Gent and
Hutchins had appeared on the track in
splendid condition. 1t has tranSpired
that Gent failed at private trial this
morning, and that his hackers at the
last moment forbade his running, Civ
ing HutchinS the stakes, but saving
heavy bets. The owners of the grounds
refused to return the entrance money,
and the people were doubly enraged.
Many of the people were from the
OrOyincpS
